Biography

James F. Barrow was born in Sep 1845 in Alabama.^[1]

He was the NOT the son of Absalom Barrow as Absalom died at least five years before he was born. So he would have been the son of Absalom's last wife Lavinia and an unknown father^[2][3] as the 1880 census lists Hillard Barrow as his brother, so they would have been half brothers.^[4] Y DNA testing a direct male descendant of James F. Barrow would determine his biological surname and if he does match the Barrows as this line has been Y DNA tested already in the Barrow Y DNA Project at Family Tree DNA (FTDNA).
